Elliot Root – Chemical Sweat

Elliot Root is an American alternative music group based in the heart of Music City Nashville. “These new recordings have been somewhat of a discovery in the process” says Scott Krueger, of Elliot Root. “We have always been chasing after something with the music, I’m not saying that we’ve found exactly what it is that we are chasing, but the honesty of exploring things as they come to you has created something in it’s own right. I think that’s what these new EP’s are”.

With two EP releases in “ER/EP” and “II” Elliot Root has spent the better part of a few years building a buzz around music that is hard to put in a box. There is something undeniable in a new band finding a momentum. There’s an unadulterated realness, a flash of creativity with only one purpose. It is creativity existing with the singular purpose of expression. Each moment a new experience, building piece by piece, a platform to stand on. With the upcoming release of “Thoughts from Yesterday” (a new EP recorded in Nashville, TN at The Castle Studios) on the horizon, and a summer full of tour dates supporting a growing machine. Elliot Root is poised to stand in front of many, experiencing the visceral trudge of a band on the rise, with open hearts and minds.

Elliot Root – Chemical Sweat

Elliot Root – Chemical Sweat Lyrics:
It’s a 24/7, working your fingers to the bond kind of reep
And it’s a human condition
Trying my best to turn it into my disease
I keep my money where my mouth is
I don’t know why
We’ve never tasted this through design
Leaving chance, such a faint disguise
I will find my own way up

Somebody told me to call you
I don’t know why
Somebody told me to call you
I don’t know why
It’s a chemical sweat
Keeping me up at night
It’s a chemical sweat
Keeping me up at night
I don’t know why

And now I’m walking in a straight line
I don’t know where it goes
Everybody’s looking up for a something weak
But it’s always a joke
I’ll keep my money where my mouth is
Till my teeth run dry
??? but I can’t let it go

Somebody told me to call you
I don’t know why
Somebody told me to call you
I don’t know why
It’s a chemical sweat
Keeping me up at night
It’s a chemical sweat
Keeping me up at night
I don’t know why
